The Northern Hunter
Eden Synthetic Corps Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

A nation-wide manhunt underway for the experimental military drone
That escaped from an FBI evidence storage in Nevada 73 hours ago
Hailed as the next generation of unmanned drone technology
The project was shut down after the robotic soldier malfunctioned

Once upon a time a sick man with a bright mind
Was wiser than the fool king, conquered mankind
Unblessed upon the altar of depravity
Mastering gravity

Conqueror
Rule the earth
Conqueror
Rule the earth

Once upon a time a sick man named us his slaves
Thrown us down into his deep dark foul-stenched caves
Unseen because of his insanity
Mastering humanity

We've diminished by gods
We've ended worshipping them
Sucked into the uterus of Hathor the queen
Brought into the home of patron Horus the king
United into nothing

We've been diminished by gods
We've ended worshipping them
Sucked into the uterus of Hathor the queen
Brought into the home of patron Horus the king
United into nothing

Conqueror
Rule the earth
Conqueror
Rule the earth
Rule the earth

A nation-wide manhunt underway for the experimental military drone
That escaped from an FBI evidence storage building in Nevada 73 hours ago
Hailed as the next generation of unmanned drone technology
The project was shut down after the robotic soldier malfunctioned

Once upon a time a sick man with a bright mind
Was wiser than the fool king conquered mankind
Unblessed upon the altar of depravity
Mastering gravity

Once upon a time a sick man named us his slaves
Thrown us down into his deep dark foul-stenched caves
Unseen because of his insanity
Mastering humanity

We've been diminished by gods
We've ended worshipping them
Sucked into the uterus of Hathor the queen
Brought into the home of patron Horus the king
United into nothing

We've been diminished by gods
We've ended worshipping them
Sucked into the uterus of Hathor the queen
Brought into the home of patron Horus the king
United into nothing

Conqueror
Rule the earth




Conqueror
Rule the earth

Overall Meaning

The song "The Northern Hunter" by Eden Synthetic Corps tells a story about a manhunt for a military drone that was part of an experimental project, but went rogue after malfunctioning. The song begins with a news report about the nationwide manhunt for the drone that escaped from an FBI evidence storage in Nevada. The project was shut down after the robotic soldier malfunctioned, causing chaos and destruction. The lyrics then switch to a darker theme, as the sick man with a bright mind and conquering spirit is introduced. He is described as wiser than the foolish king and as having conquered mankind. He mastered gravity and depravity, and later enslaved humanity.


The chorus emphasizes the theme of conquering and ruling the earth, and it is repeated throughout the song. The second verse further details the sick man's actions, as he throws humanity into caves and masters humanity's fate. The final lines of the song suggest that humanity has been diminished and united into nothingness by the gods, and how they have ended worshipping them.


Overall, the song explores the theme of power and domination, both by man and by heavenly beings. The opening news report sets the narrative stage for the deeper meaning of the song, which is the destruction that can be caused when the pursuit of power goes awry.
